She-Geeks discussion

Image is by far my favorite publisher. My current reads:
Saga
Alex + Ada
Lazarus
Mind the Gap - need to catch up
Rocket Girl
Supreme Blue Rose

What are your current picks?

Also what completed or past series did you like? Kabuki is one I loved.

I read more image then anything else. My current reads are:
Saga
TWD
Alex + Ada
Lazarus
Sex Criminals
Trees
I also want to say Pretty Deadly but I'm not actually sure that it is image...

I'm super excited for Copperhead. And can't think of any completed ones at the moment.

Rat Queens and Outcast as well. Image just deliver quality comics from many different genres and it makes it very hard to not find something you'd like in what they publish.

Yes, Pretty Deadly is Image. I liked the first issue. How far are you in?
I just caught up on Alex/Ada and I love that one so much.

Agree! They consistently have interesting and varied titles.

Alex/Ada is currently my favourite series I was devastated to learn that there's only a few issues left in the series. I've read up to issue 5 of Pretty Deadly which, last I checked, means I'm up to date.

Alex/Ada is just a limited series apparently.

I'm bummed. :( It's such a genuine, sweetly funny story. Well, hopefully it continues to be great until the end.

Image makes up most of my pull list. I get:
Saga
Lazarus
Pretty Deadly
Rat Queens
Rocket Girl
Sex Criminals
Velvet

Lazarus is turning out great. They really kicked it up a notch in the 2nd arc to make it a more emotion read.

I should give velvet another try. I liked the first issue.

I didn’t pick up or read Roche Limit, but may pick it up if my shop has a copy.

Image, by far makes up the majority of my pull list- they are seriously rocking it too!!
My current pull list from Image:
Cutter
Deadly Class
Sex Criminals
Birthright
Black Science
God Hates Astronauts
Fade Out
Nailbiter
Southern Bastards

Writing it all down like that makes me feel like I might just have a problem….I can’t seem to get enough!!

The premier issue of B!tch Planet releases at the beginning of December- I'm super excited for that one too.

If I don't catch a series on the first issue I tend to wait for the TPB too.

Is anyone reading Copperhead? I love the first two issues!

if anyone is interested, a new Magdalena comic one shot is coming out in Wednesday. It's from Top Cow's talent search winners, and the writer and artist are both women. http://www.bleedingcool.com/2014/12/n...

Has anyone tried Wayward yet? The first issue was decent and it's kind of a Buffy in Japan type story.

I am preparing myself to catch up on all the single issue comics I've bought but haven't read yet and out of interest separated them into two piles, the pile containing Image comics towers over the pile with DC, Marvel, Vertigo and Black Horse!

I've been getting these ones for a while:
Rat Queens,
Saga,
Sex Criminals,
Lazarus,
Velvet
Rocket Girl (a whole year between arcs!?)
Pretty Deadly (Image website says ongoing but the last we saw anything new was April)

I've picked up these ones based on front cover or it being talked about in here:
The Fade Out
Wayward
Imperial (but just the first issue because I'm unsure of it)
Alex + Ada (when Anna recommends something this much I know it's good!)
Drifter
ODYC

Ya, what is UP with Pretty Deadly? I haven't seen anything anywhere posted that they're just taking a break, or that it's done, etc. Seems like a reeeeally long break if they are planning on coming back, especially since DeConnick is working on other things...

Oh yay, Stefani, you're trying Alex+Ada! I recommend getting the first trade. Reading it all at once was wonderful. It was surprisingly sweet, endearing, and refreshing. I haven't been that pleased with a comic very often.

I picked up the first trade and then the single issues after that, I'm very glad for online shopping!

I read Bitch Planet last night and I am so in love with it. It made me want to cry and discuss the world at the same time.

I'll have to check that out since you liked it so much.

Rat Queens is finally back! Damn artists. I have been lax on my comic reading lately. I still have Alex and Ada, Wayward and Drifter sitting on my bedside table. Might be able to get to them tonight.

I was torn with Roche Limit but I'm quite hooked by the end of issue 3 (need to pick up the rest).

I haven't tried Copperhead but it looks like there are two volumes on Netgalley so might download them both (hell it's free).

Trees disappointed me.

I'm sure I'll come back with more thoughts soon.

Oh let me knew what you think of Wayward.

I'm a huge fan of Image Comics! Really enjoy the stories, and graphics.

Paper Girls
Dream Police
Saints

Been meaning to get around to Saga, Bitch Planet, and Sex Criminals.

Though I grew up reading DC comics, I read more Image titles now than from any other company. My current Image list:

Saga
Lazarus
Bitch Planet
Dream Police
Black Magick
Rocket Girl
Velvet
Shutter
Codename Baboushka
Copperhead
Criminal
Descender

I loved Alex + Ada. Also enjoyed COWL.

I've got East of West, Five Ghosts, Paper Girls, and Sex Criminals in trades but haven't read them yet.

Image is the best ❤️

My exams are in a few weeks so I have been completely out of touch for more than two months, and my heart offers a hanky so i can wipe my tears. I have missed so many issues image issues!!

My favorite is Saga, completely adore it. It made me read Ex Machina and Y The Last Man. I read Injection as well, for it's by Warren Ellis, and I would lap up anything the creator of my beloved Jerulasalem throws at me :D

I wonder if any of you have read Autumnlands or Wytches? Absolute horror and the fantastic really appeal to me, plus Autumnlands hint at an alternate evolution/creation of man, and that's fun too :D

Really glad that I could rant here for a while. None of my friends read Image, most dont even know about its existence. My boyfriend just wants to know what's up with Walking Dead and that's it, although it was him who bought me my first Saga volume (blush blush)

Happy reading :D

Now that school is over, it's great to get back into the series that I have missed out on!

A lot like others, I think Saga is totally kicking butt.

But I'm also really enjoying/did enjoy these:

Nailbiter
Rasputin (which has sadly ended!)
Rat Queens
Wytches
Alex + Ada

And I'm really looking forward to getting into Outcast and some others that I have totally neglected since last summer!

I really liked Wytches! I'm a bit disappointed that Snyder didn't continue it, though. I thought it could have gone on!
